Following the first book in "Lotus" in "The Wyvren Trilogy," "Orchid" follows Ren as she truly explores through the world introduced in "Lotus." Ren is introduced to a mysteriously omnipotent character that challenges her trust in what she learned from Karine as she explores a new timeline full of possibilities; possibilities she hopes will allow her to save her allies from their fate and perhaps truly thwart the progress of Spring's dark desires for the mortal world. As Ren explores new timelines, she is forced to deal with the decisions she made on the surrounding ones, showing her the visceral impact of what failure can mean.
